Breeders' Cup Friday (QUICK) Wrap Up

I'll be honest I wasn't really into Breeders' Cup Friday. Perhaps it was because I watched all of the races on my phone. And maybe because I was only into two races, the Dirt Mile and the Distaff.

The Dirt Mile was the only race I didn't watch and that was because I was handing out candy to trick-or-treaters. 😝 I don't think the race was that impressive from what I heard. But I'll be honest, I was Goldencents to win and Tapiture to come second. I was hoping that Vicar's In Trouble would have ran third but I am now hoping his injury was too serious and that he recovers quickly.

The Distaff had an obvious winner before the race started. Untapable. I didn't want her to win but I had to face the facts. Congratulations to Tapit for shattering the single-season earnings of a North American site. Close Hatches does not seem like she wants to run anymore. She came dead last. Retire Close Hatches and breed her. She might be a good sale but I'm not so sure with her last few finishes...

To Rosie Napravnik (for the very, very small chance of you stumbling upon this article) congratulations on your pregnancy. Seven weeks. I'm glad to hear you will stay in the buisness with your husband. I really hope your baby is a girl and she (or he!) follows your footsteps. We'll see you soon in the Derby winner circle but this time next to the horse, not on him.

Until next time,
Madison
